  • The Stories of Flor Contemplacion and Sarah Balabagan

    The Stories of Flor Contemplacion and Sarah Balabagan
    Apr 17 2025
    In this episode, I revisit two OFW stories that profoundly shaped how I understand many of the themes we often explore on this podcast. The cases of Flor Contemplacion and Sarah Balabagan — two Filipina domestic workers whose names became symbols of injustice, sacrifice, and national reckoning in the 1990s — shook the Philippines and made global headlines. Their stories exposed the harsh realities faced by many Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), and the ways systemic failure, diplomacy, and public outcry collide.

  • The Martial Law Series: The Manili Massacre and the Boyet and Primitivo Mijares Case

    The Martial Law Series: The Manili Massacre and the Boyet and Primitivo Mijares Case
    Apr 4 2025
    LagimFam, in this instalment of the Martial Law Series, I have a double feature.

    Firstly, I feature the case of the Manili Massacre, one of the many Marcos-era massacres that was perpetrated against the Bangsamoro People. This part of the podcast is heavy with historical context in order to undertand the Bangsamoro struggle for self-determination better and trauma left by not only the Manili Massacre but all the atrocities inflicted on Muslim Filipinos.

    In the second part of the episode, I talk about the Boyet and Primitivo Mijares case, one of those Martial Law mysteries that we still do not have full answers to. From being in the Marcosian inner circle to becoming a defector, Primitivo Mijares, dared to expose Marcos and his cronies and paid a very heavy price.

  • The Leo Echegaray Case

    The Leo Echegaray Case
    Mar 21 2025
    As the Philippines is getting ready to vote again, another favourite political hot-button topic is being whipped out to get the masses riled up and divided. The death penalty is a favourite talking point by politicians who wish to project a strong-man position towards their voters who are rightfully tired of crimes happening in the country.

    But as studies have shown time and time again, the death penalty does not deter crime as addressing crime is all about looking at its root causes and addressing those instead.

    This all reminded me of a case that caught the nation's attention back in 1994. Today, I will be covering the Leo Echegaray case, which highlighted so many things for me as a teenager who was just forming her opinion on big topics like crime and death. This was a rape case that turned into a political circus that exposed Filipino politics at its worst and the lack of understanding of how the death penalty is morally wrong and how it does not do anything to address crime rates in ANY country.
